FOREIGN TRADE.

The statistics of imports and exports
of woolens, in the trade of foreign coun-
rries show that the United Kingdom is
foremost in the foreign trade in woolens,
the imports during 1885 amounting in
value to $49,000000 and the exports to
S115,OO0,000. France comes next with
imports of S49,000,00O and exports
amounting to S78,O00,0O0; Germany next
with imports OF $25,0oO,00O and exports
of $51 100000. There has been a large
decline in the wooden trade of Great
Britain since 1874 as shown by the ex-
ports, which were as follows: Exports
during the five years from 1870 to 1874
$797 900 OOO during the five years from
1880 to 1884 $548, 900, showing de-
cline of $239,0o0,000, or 80 per cent
between the two periods. This decline
the royal commission on the depression
of trade, attributes in part to the high
foreign tariffs which it is claimed shut
out the manufactures of Great Britain
fro m foreign markets.
